International Pediatric Specialist Alliance for the Children-Vietnam

IPSAC-VN (International Pediatric Specialists Alliance for the Children of VietNam) is a 501 (c) (3) philanthropic organization of volunteer clinicians and support personnel. The mission is to enhance the care of the children in Vietnam through partnership with our Vietnamese professionals in healthcare workforce and institutional capacity building. We provide 1) educational and training exchanges, 2) material and equipment, and academic support, and 3) delivery of outreach surgery. Our team makes twice-yearly visits to Vietnam for program developments at major Children’s Hospitals of the North, Central and South Vietnam. The volunteer nurses will help develop, implement pediatric surgical nursing curriculum and bedside teaching programs in perioperative care for pediatric surgical patients.
